His hope is that “government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”Lincoln's fear is that “the people” will not remain firmly united enough to resist the takeover of a tyrant.

In this episode, we talk about the disturbing connections between the 1973 film Soylent Green and what's unfolding right now. In the movie, people unknowingly eat recycled human flesh—sound far-fetched? Not anymore. Today, fake scientists and elite-backed agendas are openly promoting cannibalism and lab-grown “human meat” under the banner of climate change and sustainability. But is this really about saving the planet—or is it a form of divine judgment, just like in the Bible?We'll examine:How Soylent Green was a warning, not fictionThe spiritual and moral decay that leads to such depravityModern headlines pushing the normalization of eating human fleshWhat the Bible says about nations so depraved they eat their own children (Leviticus 26:29, Deuteronomy 28:53, 2 Kings 6:28–29)How this all ties into God's judgment in the last daysThe world is being conditioned to accept the unthinkable. But Scripture already warned us.

An episode from Seneca Bible Baptist Church, a conservative, independent body of King James Bible believers located in Seneca Falls, New York. We believe the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be the verbally and plenary inspired Word of God. The Scriptures are inerrant, infallible and God breathed, and therefore are the final authority for faith and life. The sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament are the complete and divine revelation of God to Man. The Scriptures shall be interpreted according to their normal grammatical historical meaning. The King James Version of the Bible shall be the official and only translation used by the church (2 Tim. 3:16-17). We believe in one Triune God, eternally existing in three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—each coeternal in being, co-identical in nature, coequal in power and glory, and having the same attributes and perfections (Deut. 6:4). We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ, the eternal Son of God, became man, without ceasing to be God, having been conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, in order that He might reveal God and redeem sinful men (Phil. 2:58). We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished our redemption through his death on the cross as a representative, vicarious, substitutionary sacrifice; and, that our justification is made sure by His literal, physical resurrection from the dead (1 Peter 1:35). We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ ascended to Heaven, and is now exalted at the right hand of God, where, as our High Priest, He fulfills the ministry of Representative, Intercessor, and Advocate (Acts 1:910). We believe that salvation is the gift of God brought to man by grace and received by personal faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, whose precious blood was shed on Calvary for the forgiveness of our sins 1 Pet. 1:1819). A message from Seneca Bible Baptist Church: “We would love to have you visit! “If you are looking for a church in the Seneca Falls, New York area that preaches the Truth from God's Word, reach out to us at any time.

In today's episode of The Atheist Experience, Forrest Valkai and Jim Barrows dive into heated discussions surrounding the definition of God, the complexities of biblical morality, and the human search for purpose, challenging callers on logical consistency and the practical implications of their beliefs.Will in the UK claims that if God isn't real, nothing is, defining God as "that which has authority of all things" and later equating it to "truth" or "objective reality." Hosts challenge the idea of "truth" having "authority" or "governance," pointing out the vagueness and the caller's confusion between a map and the territory. Can an abstract concept dictate reality?Patrick in "Flying Lemurs" (FL) suggests atheists can't go wrong by following Jesus' command to love one another, referencing 1 Corinthians. Hosts question the practical application of this vague definition of love, asking if kindness can sometimes be impatient. Why should one rely on a book that also condones slavery and genocide for moral guidance?Watcher 215 asks about "information" in biology, hinting at Stephen Meyer's intelligent design argument. Hosts dismantle Meyer's flawed definition of information, explaining that random processes can produce information and arguing that DNA, if designed, is "horribly bad." They also highlight the logical contradiction in God simultaneously keeping and not keeping a record of wrongs.Mike in "Scuttling Crabs" (SC) disagrees with Jim's interpretation of "love is not proud" from 1 Corinthians. Hosts reiterate the biblical verse's vagueness, arguing it's uselessly general for practical life. They also critique the King James Version for deliberately misrepresenting words like "slave" as "servant," questioning the Bible's reliability as a moral guide.Joshua in Arizona asks if we need God to be moral, leading to a discussion on the problem of evil and God's condonation of slavery and genocide in the Bible. Hosts press Joshua on how an "all-good, all-powerful, all-knowing" God can exist in a world with immense suffering, suggesting such a God is not worth worshipping.Owen in Canada questions how atheists find purpose without eternal life or intrinsic meaning. Hosts explain optimistic nihilism, where individuals create their own purpose, and attribute the drive to survive to evolution. They challenge the caller's argument from ignorance, asserting that personal meaning does not necessitate a divine source.Thank you for joining us this week!

In this Bible Story, we see Elisha avoid the wrath of the armies of Aram. The Lord confuses them, and lures them into a trap by blinding them to the identity of Elisha. He leads them into the capital of Israel, where they are at the mercy of the king's army. However, instead of killing them they show mercy. As a result, Aram and Israel live at peace with one another. This story is inspired by 2 Kings 6:8-23.

However, the God of Israel, who knows all, would inform Elisha of what the King of Aram was planning and Elisha would, in turn, inform his King. This constant outmaneuvering irritated the King of Aram and he sent soldiers to hunt for Elisha. When the army of Aram arrived at Dothan they surrounded Elisha and his servant. But Elisha was unafraid because He could see the armies of heaven surrounding the armies of Aram. So he prayed and God delivered the men of Aram into Samaria, the land of their enemy. But instead of bloodshed, they were given a feast, and God's mercy was revealed to the nations.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Overview:In this episode, Ryan and Brian return after a brief hiatus to dive into the topic of breaks in Scripture—chapter, verse, paragraph, and section breaks—and how these editorial additions impact the way we read and interpret the Bible. They discuss the historical origins of these breaks, their purpose, and how they can sometimes obscure the original flow of the text. Using examples from John, Matthew, Isaiah, Philippians, and Colossians, they highlight “bad breaks” and offer practical strategies for reading Scripture more holistically.Key Topics Discussed:Life Updates:Brian shares his experience at Northern Seminary, meeting his doctoral cohort, and taking a class with Matthew Bates, author of Gospel Allegiance and Beyond the Salvation War. Bates has promised to join the podcast in July.Ryan discusses his ongoing classes, including a deep-dive exegetical study of Philippians, which inspired this episode's topic.Both hosts have been busy with school, leading to a brief podcast break, but they're excited to be back.Historical Context of Breaks in Scripture:New Testament: Originally written without breaks, punctuation, or chapters, using conjunctions like kai (and) and de (but) to structure sentences.Old Testament: Some books, like Psalms, had natural breaks, but most chapter breaks were added in the 13th century by Stephen Langton, Archbishop of Canterbury. Verses were introduced in the late 16th century, with the Geneva Bible (c. 1607) being the first to include them.Purpose: Chapters and verses were added to make referencing easier (e.g., John 3:16), but they can sometimes disrupt the text's flow.King James Version (1611): Early adoption of chapter and verse divisions, which explains why some verses are “missing” in modern translations due to improved textual criticism.Types of Breaks and Their Impact:Chapter Breaks: Can seem arbitrary, as humorously attributed to Langton's “horseback” decisions.Paragraph Breaks: Editorial decisions in Greek texts (e.g., Nestle-Aland 28, UBS 5) and English translations (e.g., NIV) that vary and affect interpretation.Section Breaks: Headings in modern Bibles, added by editors, can influence how readers group and understand passages.Examples of “Bad Breaks” in Scripture:John 20:24-31 (Doubting Thomas):A section break after verse 29 separates Thomas's story from the Gospel's purpose statement (verses 30-31). Reading them together shows Thomas as a negative example, encouraging readers to believe without seeing, based on reliable testimony.Key Insight: Section headings can disconnect related thoughts, obscuring the author's intent.Matthew 24-25 (Jesus' Teaching on the Second Coming):The chapter break between 24:51 and 25:1 disrupts a continuous teaching about faithfulness and preparedness. The parable of the virgins (25:1-13) logically follows the servant parable (24:45-51).Key Insight: Chapter breaks can fragment unified discourses, missing the broader context.Isaiah 52:13-53:3 (Suffering Servant):The chapter break between 52:15 and 53:1 splits the introduction of the servant (52:13-15) from the description (53:1-3), which is part of the same discourse.Key Insight: Reading across chapter breaks reveals the full context of familiar passages.Philippians 1:12-15 (Paul's Chains):A chapter break at verse 15 disconnects Paul's discussion

But King Ahab also saw it and wanted it for himself. When Naboth refused Ahab, he left to go sulk to his wife. Jezebel was quick to plan and execute Naboth's murder. Though she was crafty, her involvement did not go unseen. And God would not let her or her husband go unpunished.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.
